Washington Commanders
As measured by our Reacts survey this week, fan confidence has fallen to just 32% among Hogs Haven readers, the lowest point of the season excepting the 27% nadir reached in Week 8.
The clear proximate cause for this loss of confidence is the current 5-game losing streak, which includes losses by a margin of 21 points or more in each of the last four games. But the issues likely go well beyond that losing streak.
The manner of the losses, in which the team’s defense has looked uncompetitive and the team overall has appeared overmatched,...

The Washington Commanders held their third, and final practice of the week in Spain as they prepare to play the Miami Dolphins on Sunday. Two players are listed as questionable, and they both picked up new injuries during the week. TE Ben Sinnott was on yesterday’s report, and he was limited with an ankle injury, and didn’t practice today. LB Jordan Magee was limited today with a new knee injury, and is questionable for Sunday. He saw less snaps last week, and could be limited if he plays.
Four players didn’t travel to Spain and they were all ruled out....

Both teams enter the historic matchup with something to prove. The Commanders, winless in international play (0-1-1), turn to veteran quarterback Marcus Mariota for his fifth start of the season while Jayden Daniels remains sidelined. On the opposing side, the Dolphins are 2-5 in international regular-season games and have lost four straight overseas.
Adding to the storyline is a special connection under center: both Mariota and Tua Tagovailoa hail from Saint Louis High School in Honolulu, Hawai’i — where Tagovailoa first met Mariota...

It’s week 11 of the NFL season, and the 3-7 Washington Commanders will be facing the 3-7 Miami Dolphins in Spain (!) this Sunday at 9:30 am ET. The Dolphins season has been the opposite of the Commanders: starting the season weakly with an 0-3 record, but bouncing back with 2 wins in their last 3 games (including a win against the Buffalo Bills). The Dolphins seem to be getting better as the season goes on, despite having fired their GM Chris Grier on Halloween and begun a purging of Front Office staff.
On offense, the Dolphins are led by...

Joe Whitt Jr also talked to reporters after practice. He had his playcalling duties taken away by Dan Quinn after the team lost its 5th game in a row, and fourth game by more than 21 points. He said there are no hard feelings, and there will...

The Commanders’ season death spiral continued into its fourth week with a 22-44 loss to the Detroit Lions. The Commanders fell behind with the touchdown on Lions’ first offensive drive and were really a threatened to retake the lead.
The Commanders enter Week 11 with a 3-7 record and three remaining games against teams with 7 or 8 wins. The offense ranks 13th in the league in efficiency (0.046 EPA/play), 22nd in scoring and 18th in total yards. The main problems are on defense, where they rank 30th in efficiency (+0.157 EPA/play – you want that figure to be negative),...

Week 11 of the 2025 season kicks off with an AFC East matchup between the New York Jets and the New England Patriots. The Jets are a 2-win team while the Patriots are riding high at 8-2. Drake Maye is currently tied with Matthew Stafford for the best NFL MVP odds at +300. The Jets are starting Justin Fields and he was not good in a win over the Browns. The Patriots are big home favorites, and this could get ugly fast.

Week 11 saw many of the top teams in the College Football Playoff rankings get wins. Ohio State, Texas A&M, Alabama, and Georgia all won fairly easily against conference opponents. Indiana and Oregon needed late-game heroics in order to win, but got it done when it mattered. The big matchup of the weekend came courtesy of the Big 12, as unbeaten BYU faced Texas Tech. The Red Raiders defense, led by linebacker Jacob Rodriguez and pass rushers David Bailey and Romello Height, suffocated BYU and handed the Cougars their first loss. BYU fell to #12 in the College Football Playoff...
